#1503

I have picked up a few programs for my AT clone that require nansi.sys
to work properly (including stevie, which I'd really like to use).
But...I don't have nansi.sys, and ansi.sys is missing a few functions
that are required by stevie.  I've tried two extended ANSI drivers 
from simtel, but neither worked satisfactorily.  Where do I get the
"real" nansi.sys?

I have a Northgate-supplied DOS 3.3 system, which I got in November 1988.

Thanks.
